Temporary values

The following values are subject to modifications after simulations.

Name	Value(s)	Description
Difficulty, δ	variable	Blockchain difficulty adjusted every given time period $P$ (number of blocks) to have a average mining time as desired
Difficulty adjustment period, P	10 blocks	"For a desired average mining time $\Delta_t$, i.e., every $P$ blocks, for an average mining time of $\Delta_t$ over the last $P$ blocks, $\delta$ is updated as follows: $\delta \gets \delta \cdot \frac{\bar{\Delta_t}}{\Delta_t}$.". In .ron: difficulty_adjustment_period
Block time, $\Delta_t$	10 secs	Desired average mining time. In .ron: desired_average_mining_time_in_ms
Block size (MB)	TBD	Size of a block
Miner's Behavior reward per quantity, $k$	2000000000000000000	Reward for the miner's PoB used for mining a block. In .ron: miner_behavior_reward_per_quantity
Behavior reward per quantity, $k'$	1000000000000000000	Reward for each Proof of Behavior quantity unit included in a block and not used for mining e.g. for a sustainable 10km bike trip. In .ron: behavior_reward_per_quantity
Miner included behavior reward per quantity, $k''$	1000	Reward for each Proof of Behavior quantity unit included in a block and used for mining e.g. for a sustainable 10km bike trip. In .ron: miner_included_behavior_reward_per_quantity
Miner fixed reward per transaction, $tr$	21000	Reward for each Transaction included in a block. In .ron: miner_fixed_reward_per_transaction
Transaction fees percentage, $fr$	10%	Min fees to guarantee the miner fixed reward for each Transaction included in a block. In .ron: transaction_fees_percentage
PoB expiration period	24h	A PoB is considered expired when its timestamp is more than 24 hours older than the newest PoB in the blockchain up to this point. In .ron: expiration_time_limit
Demurrage rate per day, $d_{day}$	10%	Percentage of coins lost per day, see Demurrage. In .ron: desired_demurrage_percent_per_day
